Abstract
Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is an enteric coronavirus that has been the main cause of diarrhea in piglets since 2010 in China. The aim of this study was to investigate sequence variation and recombination events in the spike (S) gene of PEDV isolates from China. Thirty complete S gene sequences were obtained from PEDV-positive samples collected in six provinces in China from 2020 to 2023. Phylogenetic analysis showed that 10% (3/30) belonged to subtype GII-a, 6.67% (2/30) were categorized as subtype GII-b, 66.67% (20/30) were categorized as subtype GII-c, and 16.66% (5/30) were clustered with the S-INDEL strains. Amino acid sequence alignments showed that, when compared to strains of other subtypes, the GII-c strains had two characteristic amino acid substitutions (N139D and I289M). Five S-INDEL subtype strains had a single amino acid deletion (139N) and four amino acid substitutions (N118G, T137S, A138S, and D141G). Recombination analysis allowed six putative recombination events to be identified, one involving recombination between GII-c strains, two involving GII-c and GII-b strains, two involving GII-c and GI-a strains, and one involving GII-a and GI-b strains. These results suggest that recombination between PEDV strains has been common and complex in recent years and is one of the main reasons for the continuous variation of PEDV strains.
期刊介绍:
Archives of Virology publishes original contributions from all branches of research on viruses, virus-like agents, and virus infections of humans, animals, plants, insects, and bacteria. Coverage spans a broad spectrum of topics, from descriptions of newly discovered viruses, to studies of virus structure, composition, and genetics, to studies of virus interactions with host cells, organisms and populations. Studies employ molecular biologic, molecular genetics, and current immunologic and epidemiologic approaches. Contents include studies on the molecular pathogenesis, pathophysiology, and genetics of virus infections in individual hosts, and studies on the molecular epidemiology of virus infections in populations. Also included are studies involving applied research such as diagnostic technology development, monoclonal antibody panel development, vaccine development, and antiviral drug development.Archives of Virology wishes to publish obituaries of recently deceased well-known virologists and leading figures in virology.
